Customer Reviews:

Great for John Denver Fans!.......2007-01-04

Being a long standing JD fan I was looking to replace my lp "Beginnings with the Mitchell Trio" from 1974 with a CD. Unfortunately that lp is unavailable as a CD but luckily all but 2 of the songs (Like to Deal With the Ladies and She Loves You) are on this CD! Although I normally prefer hearing John singing solo, which he does on Bells Of Rhymney (this version I think is better than Pete Seeger's), the harmonies of the Mitchell Trio are excellent especially on For Bobbi (For Baby)! This CD is a must for those JD fans wanting to hear John's early work.

John Denver Fans Might Want To Check This One.......2006-07-26

These two albums were released in 1966 as the Mitchell Trio reflecting the replacement of Chad Mitchell by John Denver. The songs on the albums are a good mixture of the humor, social satire, political commentary and ballads that characterized the group and pleased their fans. If you're a MT fan, you already know these albums from their original vinyl releases on the Mercury label, and you won't be disappointed.

Not a MT fan? These albums provide a glimpse of contemporary folk music, and one of its more popular groups, toward the end of that era, but I'd suggest trying a CMT/MT compliation first: either the The CMT Collection (Kapp Releases) or The Best of the CMT: The Mercury Years, both available on CD. If you get hooked, most of the CMT/MT discography is also available on CD.

If you're a John Denver fan, you might want to pick-up this two album CD. It contains two great solos by John of Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man" and Idries Davies/Pete Seeger's "Bells of Rhymney." It also contains the MT performing "For Bobbi," the first recorded song written by John Denver. All three cuts are excellent.

We can thank Collector's Choice for once again providing a two album CD of one of the better contemporary folk groups of the 1960s.
